Post by indigolemon » Sat Aug 07, 2010 11:49 pm

For those of you who have not clicked the link yet, we are now testing live chat. It can be accessed via the link at the top.

Let us know what you think! 8-)

In my opinion the chat takes away from what makes forums great, the ability to post something crap and then have the other person respond etc...

I think the chat would take away from it, we'll wait and see I suppose :D

Pidgin - http://www.pidgin.im/
Hexchat - http://hexchat.org/

Linux:
Empathy - Likely installed, or in the software repositories
Pidgin - In the software repositories
xchat - Likely installed, or in the software repositories
irssi - My preferred option, likely installed, or in the software repositories

OS X
Adium - http://adium.im/
Colloquy - http://colloquy.info/

Any Q's, just ask 8-)
